When a relationship is strained, it can seem like there is no way to make things better. Fortunately, there is hope. Relationships can be healed. I believe authenticity is the key to living and loving in healthful ways. Since my style is both relational and systemic, I will be genuine in our sessions and invite you to be authentic too. I hope to develop an open and compassionate therapeutic relationship that stimulates growth and change. Many people come to me when their attempts to make things better have not worked, but they are not ready to give up. I think people become stuck in unfortunate patterns that cause emotional distress and I appreciate the opportunity to help folks transform those patterns to create safe, loving relationships.

I work with young adults (teens-thirties). These clients are working with anxiety, depression, trauma and life transition issues that are often existential in nature. I also work with couples, this work is done with a co-therapist. Yes, two therapists working with you and your partner at the same time.
